Summer is coming to an end, which means packing up for school, saying goodbye to your summer sneaky link, and watching your tan fade away. While it’s hard to kiss summer goodbye, for many college students, the fun is only going to continue back on campus. Fall semester is around the corner, new school year, new you? Old you? Same you? Either way, darties, formals, and nights out (and school of course…) ) bring on excitement. And for all of the fun you’ll be having, you must have an elite pregame playlist..
